I just...

Rocked Nicholas to sleep. :) we haven't done this in so so long, and it felt so great! He has been going down awake for months now, but was so tuckered out today that he started getting drowsy while nursing, and since that big birthday is looming, I decided to skip the books and let him fall asleep. Loved the cuddle time! Just wanted to share. :)

Girls...y'all will hate me, but Sydnee wants to be cuddled every night she goes to sleep. I don't kind it the least very bit. I'm sure the time is coming where she doesn't want to, but in the meantime, I'm gonna soak it all in!

My DD was born early, so we just had the big day over the weekend. My now TODDLER(!) rarely ever slows down for snuggles. I haven't yet taken away the bottle because we're still working on finding a sippy she'll drink from without then haveing everything she got in her mouth come dribbling back out. So the bottle cuddles before naps/bed are usually all we get. Yesterday, however, she spent about an hour snuggling with me on the couch reading, etc. and another hour with DH once he got home. Awake but content. So precious! Even if she falls asleep while I'm feeding her, I lay her down pretty quickly because otherwise I'll sneeze and wake her up each and every time! Darn allergies or something!

Awe that's so sweet! I miss those days too...but on the other hand it's nice that daddy can give her a bottle and put her to bed now too, since she no longer *needs* to be nursed/rocked to sleep. I so look forward to weekends because I get to snuggle her to sleep for her naps though :)

Jen, I'm the same way :) Ambrosia's been cuddled to sleep since they day she was born. I have no idea what its like to not rock or cuddle her to sleep. I think I may bawl my eyes out the day she falls asleep on her own!

Aww Sadie can only fall asleep by being nursed, rocked, or getting a "shimmy shake" from her daddy. She always fights it too so her bedtime routine usually takes a while. But I love it and she sleeps great! I don't know what I'm going to do once her baby brother gets here in May though. I can't rock them both to sleep at once! lol
